Mania Akbari, one of the most remarkable Iranian female directors shows her latest works in a series of screenings at Nottingham Contemporary.

One.Two.One (2011), 79 min

Ava is a young, attractive Iranian woman whose face has been disfigured as the result of an accident. Part of her healing process is as much about accepting herself anew, as it is about coming to terms with the prejudices and stigmatisation that her defacement provokes in society. Structured as a series of sketches, Ava’s healing is depicted as both physical (a visit to a beauty clinic) and psychological (visits to a psychiatrist and a fortune teller).
